I can't help with your pop-before-SMTP, but I can suggest that you not do that. :) The better way to do it is with SMTP AUTH, which most MUA's should support these days.

If your MTA is Postfix (which appears so from your headers) Timo has a patch which ties in SASL AUTH support without using Cyrus SASL. I use it and recommend it highly. See the Postfix SASL_README and the patch at http://dovecot.org/patches/postfix/ (for Postfix 2.2.x) or my own ports of it to the 2.3 snapshots: http://www.nodns4.us/postfix-2.3-20051121-dovecot-auth.patch.gz

http://www.nodns4.us/postfix-2.3-20050630-dovecot-auth.patch.gz still exists for those who got on the bleeding edge but were too lazy to stay there. :)
